Most West Virginians know about the great beaches along big lakes of the Mountain State, like the ones at Cheat Lake or Summersville Lake. But sometimes you want something that's a little more unknown and less crowded.
The Foxfire KOA Campground in Milton, WV, has a surprising little swimming beach all their own.

A day on the water is fun for the entire family! With this trip along this lazy river in West Virginia, all you'll need to bring is sunscreen and drinks!
